I was doing some reading here and just thought of a question. What are the convenants that one agrees to before baptism? What is required of someone in order to be baptised and join the church? I understand that there is a one year period before you can get a temple recommendation but how does the baptism work? I'm not quite sure how to word what I am thinking. Basically, what "rules" does one agree to or need to have testimony to live before they can join? I am very new to all of this and am just trying to get as much information as I can.
